MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. – Miami Dolphins left tackle Terron Armstead said after the 2023 NFL season that he would “take his time” deciding whether to return for another year.

Now, it appears the 32-year-old is expected to forgo retirement, according to the Miami Herald’s Barry Jackson.

Armstead has battled multiple injuries throughout his entire career, missing a combined 11 games in his two years with the Dolphins.

But despite the time missed, the five-time Pro Bowler has been one of the game’s most respected blind-side blockers when healthy.

Armstead signed a five-year, $75 million deal prior to the 2022 season and remains under contract through 2026. He is owed more than $20M in 2024, per Over the Cap.

The Dolphins could decide to renegotiate his contract after looking to re-sign Armstead’s fellow starting offensive linemen Connor Williams and Robert Hunt, both of whom are scheduled to become free agents and free to negotiate with all 31 other teams -- starting March 11.

The Dolphins are entering a critical season for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who’s approaching the final year of his rookie contract. Keeping the left tackle on board for another year should help his production in 2024.
